Genetic parameters estimates for milk, fat and protein yield analyzed by test day models for Murrah buffaloes in Brazil
The objectives of this study were to estimate genetic parameters for testday milk, fat and protein yields, in Murrah buffaloes. In this study 4,757 complete lactations of Murrah buffaloes were analyzed. The (co) variance components were estimated by restricted maximum likelihood using MTDFREML softw...
